I think there may be a clue here. When you say close the page that implies that you have left the site, so when you return the buttons have reset. The button means "new posts since last visit" and not "unread posts" so when you read one you need to read the rest before you leave, otherwise they will indeed disappear.
Is this what is happening?

I wonder why I wasn't contacted? Oh well, perhaps they don't like me....

So, what is the advantage of going shutter priority - especially when you are shooting still life
I'm far more concerned with depth of field than shutter speed 95% of the time for the shots that I do, I can't remember the last time I used Tv mode.

...and have a sore knee to prove it
Dan may relate his experience of a shattered filter severely scratching the front lens element when it broke on dropping the lens.
I do use filters, most often a polariser, but only when needed, and I use the Cokin type filter system, which I have found to be an excellent 'bumper' when I dropped my camera with the adapter, holder and filter attached. The adapter and holder bent and took all the impact, camera and lens was fine.
